NGINX Now Natively Supports ACME: Streamlining SSL Certificate Management
2025-08-14
NGINX announces native support for the ACME protocol, introducing a new module (ngx_http_acme_module) for requesting, installing, and renewing certificates directly within the NGINX configuration. This eliminates the need for external tools like Certbot, simplifying SSL/TLS certificate management, reducing manual errors, and improving security by shrinking the attack surface. ACME's automated workflow is enhanced by NGINX's native integration, boosting efficiency and reliability for modern web infrastructures.
